Thank you. I do t understand why they make a wonderful video and leave out the list of plants. Thanks for taking your time to share it with us. 👍🏽🌺
Thank you so much🌺🌺🌺
I had earwigs decimate coneflowers and black eyed Susan’s, Shasta daisies OVERNIGHT. How do I grow these ?
@trubdour Thank you 🌼
I love growing zinnias. They’re simple to plant and they can be trimmed for vases. And a new bloom grows back fast.
You are so right. I have literally thinned my flower beds threw the discards in a pile and the next year they grew there.
One year I had too many divisions of sedum and I laid it under a lilac. It bloomed there on top of the ground for 3 years before I found it a home. Bulletproof indeed
wow!! my garden has most of these. Shasta daisies, Echinacea, Autumn joy sedum, lavendar creeping flox. These all perform awesome. very low maintenance but great impact!!
i have these too, reliable plants
The truth, Barbara.... tell the truth.
I’m so excited that you mentioned Mums. I’m a newer gardener. I bought some at Home Depot that were already bloomed out for $3.00 when they were sold for $30.00. I bought 9 of them. I took them home trimmed them and planted them to just be something green in a new flowerbed that had nothing in it. They survived my Idaho Winter and have come back beautifully every year for me. I love that I have sweet nice sized green mounds to plant around that I can depend on. I also love that at the end of the season I get a beautiful flower show from them. I never knew if what I did was right or wrong because everyone treats them as a throw away flower. It’s nice to see them get a mention somewhere. :)
Smart you!
Lucky you, I used to travel to Boston very often, the most beautiful memories of mums, there vas mums nursery in the North Main Street , Randolph, MA,
I simply fell in love with it, all the colour and some pumpkins……in September they just were giving me some joy ( 😥)
They are not so popular in the UK , I would give a lot just to see them , and my friends, sad ,very hard time for me, but that mums….. 💙😢
Must be nice being in zone 7. Here not so many would make it
Great story!!!! I always thought they were a "throwaway " flower as well. Ive got 7 or 8 spread around and i think one had a Baby. Lol theres a small shoot coming up next to it.
I love them. I’ve planted them over the years and some come back some dont😢.
I am planning a pollinator garden for next year and most all of these are included. Thanks for solidifying my choices for me.
Thank you for remembering beginner and mid range gardners. Always find your content helpful! Appreciate you.
I like gaillardia. It is the toughest thing in my garden, and blooms all summer. Drought resistant, and very pretty. You have to deadhead, but it is worth it.
This video is just what the gardener ordered! 💘 it.
I can confirm the endorsement of each of these fantastic plants. I had all of them in my Pacific NW garden, and they did spectacularly-providing a consistent structure for my perennial gardens. In our wet climate, we had to take extra care with sedum autumn joy though because they do not like wet feet. Once they were situated in the right spot, they flourished and provided great shape and blooms when most else was spent in mid-Fall.
Spot on Steve👍
I’m also in the PNW and have had sedum autumn joy that never made it past a season. I’m reluctant to try it again but perhaps...
@@denisedorsey2889 We planted against a rock retaining wall (on top) and added a lot of grit and well draining soil so it could overwinter without rotting from all the rain!
Thank you Linda for all of your wonderful videos. And many thanks to Stewart for his professional filming and editing. I thoroughly enjoy every one of your videos and have learned so much from you. You’re calm, soothing voice is so pleasant to listen to and your gardens are amazing.
,
HAPPY to let you Know Linda that Yesterday Evening we had Our First Monsoon with Hail Here in New Mexico,even Happier that All the Plants SURVIVED.
Mrs. Huff Lantana is also a spectacular plant. Reliable, drought tolerant, deer resistant and fragrant. Love your design. You're an inspiration!
I live in South Eastern Washington, Zone 7a. Lantana is an annual here ☹️
But in AZ where my sister lives you see it everywhere all year round!! 🤗
I am jealous!!
Lantana is a must have in my hanging flower pots
Miss Huff is my favorite lantana ❤
Autumn joy sedum is called "Wounded warrior" in my language and is famous for healing properties. I have it for many, many years.
Didn’t know this, thank you❣️How do you prepare and use it for healing?
I love it, but the deer love it more.
I have some sedum but know the strain
How do you use it for healing, please?
@@Jdjustsaying People make tea for stomach ulcer, fresh leaves are good for corns and calluses, cracked heels etc.
New to gardening in the south and have done so much research but your choice of topics, succinct presentation and of course expertise has been super valuable and appreciated. Thank you so much, Linda!🎉🎉🎉
You are as beautiful (inside + out) as your garden! And you are always dressed so nice. Thanks for all the content and info!
Excellent treat for a Saturday afternoon. Thanks 😊
Thank you Linda, you have enabled me to be more experimental in my gardens, I love thrifting and love that you incorporate a lot of treasures into your garden as I do too. You are a vault of wonderful information.
The growth of your channel is exponential in the last few weeks, congratulations on all your hard work.
Thank you!
I love how you let your larkspur self seed everywhere. Just like me! I like to place most plants...but the larkspur is so beautiful it can pop up wherever it wants. 😍
Yes!!
Thanks I just grew Shasta daisies from seed and am so excited to watch them bloom!
Thank you Linda 🥰🌿🪴🪴🌱🌳 i bought Blue Veronica because of you .....and géraniums, and fig tree, and lavender, and and and!! 😆😆👌🏻😍 Great source of inspiration for me 🙏🏻❤️😘
All of these plants have marvelous foliage as well as lovely flowers.
100% agree with creeping phlox. It is amazing.
Liked that you highlighted some natives! Your yard looks very nice. A few years back I stopped buying non-natives and hybrids. Dedicated to only plant native trees, scrubs and ephemerals. I've taken out old honeysuckle hedges and replaced with redbud trees and fringe trees. Zone 5b woodland prairie.
👍👍🥰
you have pyrenees? I have one too
@@tas5622 yes! French dog of kings. Mine was a rescue at age 4. I guess he was lazy and didn't watch the sheep. Now he's the guardian of our galaxy. 💛
@@seachange17 how nice! Ours (a she) is turning 2 in August. We are very happy to have a pyr!
Echinacea and Rudbeckia is absolutely lovely duo,sedums also welcomed in my garden in the fall they doing their best in my dry clay soil.
Am a big fan of daylilies,irises and hostas they really elevate the whole picture of garden
My favorite most die hard and beautiful plant is orange cosmos. It is an annual, however it reseeds and spreads. Likes crappy soil, heat, humidity and I never water it. Absolutely gorgeous too.
Totally agree.
Completely agree I like the lower maintenance of shrubs over perennials. I like dwarf shrubs that are about the size of perennials. Also was glad (and sure) sedum made the list - a real problem solver.
Yup!
I'd love for you to share and show how you dry flowers. I never have luck. Love your beautiful garden. By the way, I've been watching QVC for years. ❤
She is so knowledgeable~love watching her videos!
Yes Linda, two of my favorites are black eyed Susan and coneflowers.❤️❤️❤️
My giant alliums dry beautifully and make designer looking arrangements.
After the blooms end I cut the globe with their long stems, tie them together and let them dry out in my garage.
Alliums are bulbs planted in the Fall /bloom late April all of May into June
They are a very beautiful BIG statement in my flower garden. The blooms can be as big as a cantaloupe!
I live in NW Indiana near Lake Michigan
Love this video! This is what I need as a new gardener, and I love perennials as I can save a lot. Thank you!
What a beautiful Southern lady!
Love this! Can't wait to see you on QVC on Thursday!!!
4pm CST
QVC? Thursday? I hope I can get that channel. We live off-grid, and our tv stations go in and out.
@@trishferrer8209 4pm CST QVC 5/20/2021
Excellent as always. We have similar growing conditions except I’m 15 miles away as the crow flies from Stone Mountain & every time I dig I hit granite. That & huge water oaks soak up all the water when it gets brutally hot. So my soil REALLY drains too well.
I would add to that list:
Day lillies ( which Linda must hate )
My best plant for bloom & color ( grey ) is Rose Campion
And that’s about it !
So gorgeous! I was hoping you’d talk about the huge alliums that you have - what kind are those? Globe master or gladiator?
I was never able to grow coneflowers until I got a passalong from a fellow gardener. Now they are happily spreading themselves throughout the garden. Love them. Mostly agree with your list. Maybe sometime you can show us your tree to see how it is coming along. Your garden looks so pretty and happy.
Would love to know the variety of echinacea that was successful. I’ve noticed that the old fashioned, original plant is ignored by rabbits but the hybrids are mowed to the ground.
Would love to know the variety of echinacea that was successful. I’ve noticed that the old fashioned, original plant is ignored by rabbits but the hybrids are mowed to the ground.
I've tried planting echinacea but it NEVER comes back :( I decided to try them again and bought some this spring... fingers crossed!!! Thanks for the information, I've found I cannot take the heat anymore and love your low maintenance information!
Growing cleome spider flower this year and it is also indestructible!! THE most beautiful flowers and seed pods. Already had to cut them back today in 9b. Highly recommend
Kind of smelly though, right? Or is it just me?
@@jacobpalmer4419 Yes!...smells and looks (leaf) like marijuana. I bought from a plant fair and the grower suggested I plant in an inconspicuous place :)
Cleomes propagate like crazy too.
Sadly, I bought 7 Echinaceas last year and not one came back this year. It is a beautiful flower and I hope I can do better with it in the future. I live in harrah, OK. I love watching your videos and learning from you with what works well for our area. Cannot wait for the QVC line.
Glad I found this...ideas to grow in native "soil" where I dont have to bring in my own soil
Love this video. I am an experienced gardener but I garner lots of information from your walking commentaries. I'm writing down suggestions for my shade garden that I'm adding to. One flower I've never heard you mention and I grow it prolifically is Nigella or Love-in-a-mist. I scatter seeds and it grows easily in sun.....beautiful blue flowers that form great pods used in dry arrangements. I used to use them a lot in my floral business.
Great help. I neither want or can work too hard any more , although gardening has been and is substantial for me. With climate change days are even hotter and most cut down on fussy plants. Most of those you mention are heat tolerant but not easily available. Thank you so much. I pleasure.
All great plants-for those that garden with deer and rabbits, from this list I have had success growing rudbeckia, daisy and creeping phlox. I do have sedum but have to spray with deer repellent if I want to see flowers. I have tried echinacea and the others over the years but either the deer or the rabbits get them every time so I have moved on.
Amazon sells solar powered, motion activated alarms that only deer (and presumably dogs and rabbits ) can hear, but humans cannot. On a neighborhood gardening tour, where many gardens were chewed down, I saw the one that was in tact utilized these alarms every 12 feet. Perhaps this info will benefit you.
I've never had much luck with echinacea :/
I tried growing some from seed but nothing came up. maybe I'll try next year because I do love them!
My personal faves are cosmos,rudbeckia morning glory and I just discovered dead nettle this year and it's like an iridescent silver green.Bees love the little purple flowers too! My 12yo picked that and Irish moss/scotch grass.
(she has good taste!) :)
We don’t have a deer problem but we have a ton of rabbits and last year they ate my echinacea to the ground. I love echinacea and had planted 6-8 different varieties. I put netting around them and they grew back fine. Apparently rabbits only like them when the leaves are new and tender.
I have several and totally agree with your choices. I may have to get some Pure Joy. 😍 Your garden is as beautiful as ever! Love the blooming alliums!
You definitely need the pure joy because your name is Joy!
@@denisedorsey2889 😍 lol!
Love your new introduction!! I have all the Perrenials you mentioned and they have been in my yard for years!! Thanks for your input. Love your yard!!❤️
You have a beautiful flower garden . Thank you for showing! Sue Jenkins Simpson
Very to the point, not just dragged out, good info thankyou
Great informative video, Thankyou.i garden on clay too, but I'm learning clay can be fantastic when you know how to plant and to amend . Thanks for sharing Lynda 😊
Fun, Fun, Fun! I feel like I got a passing grade on my new garden. I had most of the plants on your list already planted or to be planted. My hubs will be dismayed that I have some new plants to consider for other parts of the yard. He is my hired help, but excepts the joy on my face as payment. I’ll be checking into Veronica, and the two types of Phlox. Clay, heat, dessert conditions and high PH soil are my gardening challenges. Thanks for all the help. I’m excited to get the garden center.
Veronica is my new favorite. I wish I had known years ago. Beautiful!!!!!!!!
Linda,
I just ADORE you and your videos!
Thank you!
I live in Oklahoma too ! Definitely agree with what you said “before the eat, after the heat!” 😅 I love all your tips ! Just found your channel and So glad I did!!🌼
I’m in the south with clay soil as well. I have most of these plants and they are all so easy to grow.
Thank you god I found an Oklahoma gardener! I have lived in OKC for a few years and will be here probably forever and have struggled so much learning how to add beautiful plants that thrive here. I AM SUBBED!
Welcome! I'm am so glad you found us.😀 It is an amazing community.
@@LindaVater Oh thank you so much! I don't know why I was unable to find you earlier in the season because I tried finding Oklahoma/ zone 7 gardeners. Well I'm just happy I will have lots of videos to watch threw winter and get all prepared for next spring! Have a blessed Day!
I have all the plants you described, but without deer spray they become deer food. I’m right in the middle of deer path here in zone 5b upstate NY, what I do is spray the garden and then put some in back of property and leave for the deer. Some say I’m inviting deer that way but I have found this has been win win for me. I get to enjoy plants and the deer have food and I get to enjoy seeing them. Creeping phlox is great choice for ground cover as they don’t get touched by deer or other animals.
I very much liked this video. It provided alot of good recommendations for sturdy, reliable perennials, many of which I have in my gardens. A great video for the beginner gardener who wants to incorporate some tried and true works of the garden.
Thanks for the suggestions. Your garden is lovely. May I suggest enlarging the photos to full screen and leave them up longer while you’re discussing each.
Thanks friend. Looking lovely.
love this but for use learners would love to know the sun conditions for these plants.
Fabulous segment! Thanks Linda!
I've learned so much from that I'm incorporating in my Spring cleanup and planting. Thank you for ramping up my fun!😊
Hi, Thank you for introducing me to "Sedum". I did not know it is so much loved; now, I see them differenly. 🙂 Best, Albert, SF, CA
I wish you showered us pictures of all of the flowers in bloom. Great video tho ❤
Very informative segment. . .and thank you giving the information in a brief concise manner!
Thanks so much for your actual facts due to your own experience. You are so detailed and speak slowly, so that it's all so easily to grasp. I have learned plenty from this video, as I am only in my 3rd year of really getting into all of this. Thanks again,, all the Best to You and yours here in 2021.
I like 3 die hard perennials: Daylilies, Hosta and Iris. That is it for me as nothing kills these, they come in multiple colors, sizes and bloom times and multiply rapidly allowing me freedom from weeding.
Daylilies and hostas are favorites for deer. So they are not an option for me.
Thank you!!, I really appreciate that. Much love and kindness always Tracie from Australia
What are the odds that I have NO clue about plants/flowers but need to redo my dying flowerbeds soon and your video is the first I click on and you’re in Oklahoma! This video was so helpful-thanks!
Wonderful!
@@LindaVater and in OKC as well!
I have purple and yellow echinacea, daisies, black eyed Susan and tall phlox in pink and white. I need to check out some sedum!!
I will save and watch your video again because its to the point and great information. Thank you!!!
Here in SoCal, I have tons of perennials on my back hill. I have the orange honeysuckle, tons of lantana and plumbago. The only problem I have is that they get big and stemmy, have to have them trimmed. They don't stop flowering if I water them deeply. They take a short rest, but then the water brings them back.
You had me at"Clay"! Thank you! I moved to SC 3 years ago & I need gardening advice. Thanks!😊
Really enjoy this. Your garden is interesting.So many highlights and wonderful surprises. Makes one rethink of the possibility. And you look Great.
Love all these suggestions! My goal is to have a pollinator friendly garden. I just got rudbeckia and echinacea, so thanks for the confirmation! Ps- proven winners is an amazing company!
That barberry is gorgeous!!! I just saw this at my garden center. I wonder what the flowers will look like?
i am in GA and a plant nut! i am enjoying your page so much!
I absolutely love phlox paniculata. Definitely iron plant. Before I bought my garden from previous owners they grew years without any fertilizer,on heavy soil, without cutting before new season and nothing happened to them. When full in bloom they look beautiful and the scent is so nice. It probably depends on the area they are growing but after the first bloom if you cut off the flowers they will bloom again until end of October.
Love your nasturtium in the pot!!
That Virginia Creeper on your fence is pretty easy to grow too!
I would amend your list to include my favorite, peonies. ❇️
A garden designer once said she always includes them in her designs because after they're finished blooming it still looks like a shrub.
I have 'Sunny Border Blue' Veronica and am about to divide it to transplant some back to my back yard where it originated, the rest I'll share with neighbors.
One problem, do you run into this? The bottom leaves dry up and turn black. Similar to asters. I mulch, but it doesn't matter.
I love coneflowers and how they self-seed around my yard. Not aggressively as rudbeckia (I mean the name sort of conveys its behavior).
Peonies are iffy in some climates. If you want to grow them in Texas, you have to heap snow and ice on them whenever the opportunity presents itself, and that's not every year;.
🤗 THIS!🤗 LADY 🤗 KNOWS!!! HER! FLOWERS!!!🤗🤗🤗
I love your flat garden, Linda. You are a MAXIMALIST gardener I would love to mirror. I can almost do it with winter sowing, and seeds. Today I am going to buy a concrete pineapple or a rabbit. The gargoyle broke its wings falling over. I have bondo and rubber bands to fix it. I am a maximalist in the house. Every year I am cutting down $500 worth of dead or broken trees!. This kills my garden budget! Last year we cut $5000.00 in leyland cypress that were dying. This year I am not cutting trees and I can spend on things like you have in your garden! I have no box woods in the back garden. I root my box woods. Mine came from a garden around a house going to be demolished. I have 4 huge boxwoods I had rooted.
Linda this is a very helpful video! As a fellow clay gardener I need all the tips I can get. I hope you do a follow up later this season when these start blooming. Happy Digging!
I wanna watch this video all day
I just discovered your channel today! I am so excited to find someone experienced in gardening in Oklahoma! Thanks!
Welcome!
Very informative. Thank you for all these wonderful garden suggestions!
Linda Vater “these are hail resistant”....Mother Nature “hold my beer”!😂🍺🌼
I have just dug out Rudbeckia Goldsturm, It spreads everywhere ,there are newer varieties which do not spread
I have huge carpets of deep pink creeping phlox. It did great this year in southern NJ because of extended cool days in May. If I see any other color I get rid of it like white or light lavender. I have people stop and tell me how magnificent the yard is. My tip is to start a nursery area of pots as soon as they are finished blooming. Pot up some of your plants and baby them all summer and then in the fall plug them into spots that are getting sparse or where you want them to spread. I make up about 15 pots like this and then they are also great for gifting
I am also big on Autumn Joy succulents.
I too garden in clay here in N.W. Ireland. Thanks for these suggestions. 👌💕
I have the pale pink mums & they’re prolific. Great in pots too.
No you don't.
Echinasia, I love it, but I have varmints who eat it... doggone.. Rudbeckia, heck I tried this and they ate it also..
Sedum Autumn joy, will try it. specially because of the polinator effect. Sedum pure joy, full sun.. and better drainage, I need to remember that.. Veronica (spike speedwell). will try dont remember if I have tried it before. Great about the chrysanamum, will try that again. when it came back the colors bled, great information about pruning it. phlox David. will try that also. Shasta daisy, I think I will try that again. creeping phlox - full sun... love it... (Inca minor and feverfew).
Hostas grow and spread here, but when they bloom the varmints find it and first take the flowers and then the leaves.
GREAT PRESENTAION... Couldn't help responding and making notes for myself. It is more fun to listen/watch Linda than read anything in the comments.
Thank you 😊 so much for sharing your insights and knowledge.
I love your shirt!!! Great video.. learned a lot. thank you so much with love, hugs and prayers.
Look at you sitting so cute in the garden!😊. Today’s post is why I follow you.....from Kansas (Wichita area) and share the same weather and soil conditions (clay.....my son one time told me I could make pots and sell them 😂😂). Haven’t watched QVC in years but I’ll be there Thursday....❤️
I am gardener here in Hong-Kong, but we have a lot of plants in the Philippines ❤❤❤
Thank u for full proof perrentials that I can grow.
